    Al?? Eric?? Barack??

    So the other side has already done it - that's a defense? Two wrongs now make a right? PS What you call "utter stupidity" is what black people call "everyday life as we know it in the USA" and it needs to stop.

    Rightwing on the defensive in final week of Israeli election campaign

    There was zero schadenfreude on the part of the MSM or liberals [at Bibi's win], as you claimed, [it was on the conservative side], and the correct phrase is 'spoil sports', not 'spoiled sports'. 0 for 2, honeybunch. :o

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    He'd be terminated from the cops, and probably unable to get a job with any police force in the US. And Canada, they don't like drug users either. Even where it's legal, it's not legal [or smart] to use while on the job, or before going to work. What does it matter? :confused:

    Al?? Eric?? Barack??

    That's always the answer to what is indefensible: "Well, if the other side did it" as if that makes it ok. It does not, and never will. You mentioned being blind to destructiveness [in the usual passive aggressive way], so here is some for- real destructiveness to think about: Gun show vendor...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    Those three statements prove that [unlike many here], I respond to each point raised by the opposition with a declaration of fact - something you have not done. Are you disputing the fact that THC has a mellowing effect, which makes your citing it as an adjunct to aggressive behavior asinine? Or...

    Your world is on fire

    People who not only involve kids in politics, but take their words as evidence of wisdom [the tyke's Mom says her darling was "thrilled" to see Cruz - WTF?! Any 3 year old who is thrilled to hear politicians give speeches is some form of alien, ok?] are just brain damaged. But since the woman...

    Rightwing on the defensive in final week of Israeli election campaign

    Asks the guy [at least, I assume you're a guy, not to mention fervently hope so] who misused 'schadenfreude' and 'spoil sports' - and that's just in the last batch of comments. Aaaah, Barkley: you never disappoint.:D

    22 Maps That Show How Americans Speak English Totally Differently From One Another

    Re: 22 Maps That Show How Americans Speak English Totally Differently From One Anothe I was gobsmacked the first time I heard a native of New Orleans [grandpa age] speak - he sounded straight off the Brooklyn boat, lol. I swear he said "They oughter berl em all in erl!" [La politicians, I think...

    Driver Cams?

    My, but we're perspicacious! [Or maybe that's suspicious - sometimes I mix them up];) And what if it was? Where better to "float a trial balloon" regarding technology that impacts [or might] drivers, than here? And since they asked, how do you feel about dashcam monitoring?

    Nice headlights

    Do you guys ever think that those extremely bright lights may not be the best thing since sliced bread? Because really: do you want to blind me when I'm coming towards you on a narrow two lane road, driving a truck that takes half the road? :confused: I apologize if your lights aren't that...

    Al?? Eric?? Barack??

    Really - this is just pathetic, that you would post this with the title you chose, and the questions you posed. The racism is beyond blatant. You can probably find thousands of vid clips on YouTube that you believe prove your point [but they don't] and someone else can find thousands that...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    Hilarious. 1: Smoking pot is not known to make anyone aggressive - to the contrary, it tends to have a mellowing effect. This has been proven many times over, so it hardly adds credence to the "aggressive thug" persona you promote. 2:Wilson didn't shoot Brown during that altercation, but after...

    dirrence between life of an expediter vs an OTR driver

    If the OTR driver is an employee, as many are, he has no choice in which loads to take: if it's sent to his truck, he is on it. They are usually promised home every oher weekend, and that promise is kept - though they may be required to begin the weekend with picking up a preloaded trailer on...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    A decision to prosecute [or not] can also be either political or pragmatic, neither of which says anything about guilt or lack of. The decision to not prosecute doesn't mean: ipso facto, not guilty, as some present it.

    22 Maps That Show How Americans Speak English Totally Differently From One Another

    Re: 22 Maps That Show How Americans Speak English Totally Differently From One Anothe As several people noted in the comments, the plural for 'you' in Western Pa is 'yinz' [sometimes pronounced 'yunz']. Pittsburghers also have a neat way of adding a 'w' to words like Mom, so it sounds like...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    I have read some, not all, and not exhaustively. I discount "eyewitness" testimony, [unreliable, contradictory], so how about if you point out exactly which facts prove that the officer was in fear at the moment he shot? Please tell me you don't believe that a decision not to prosecute can be...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    You're probably right, in that Rosa Parks wasn't the first, but still, she is the one whose name is instantly connected to civil disobedience that got results. Sometimes, that's the only thing left to try, so I can understand the mindset of people who feel pushed to that degree.

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    Brown would also still be alive if the officer hadn't shot him when he was neither close enough to inflict damage, nor clearly attempting/intending to do so. The shooting occurred only after the physical altercation, when Brown was not close enough to attack, and not doing anything that...

    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    I wasn't referring specifically to Micheal Brown, although, he may have had a lot of the same mindset: "I've had enough of being treated like trash because I'm not white." If you recall, the Officer didn't know about the robbery when he initially told Brown to get out of the road. What I meant...

    Kentucky native wins Medal of Honor

    Sarah Palin's Family Fight -- But Occifer, They Started It ... Says Bombed Bristol | TMZ.com I guess we have quite different ideas of what constitutes a "good and decent family", lol. Anyone who earned a Medal of Honor probably deserves better than the Palins, IMO, but then, love certainly...
